Diane Keaton Earns First-Ever Solo Entry on Billboard Chart Following Her Passing

In a bittersweet milestone, beloved Academy Award-winning actress Diane Keaton has officially made her first solo appearance on a Billboard chart, marking an extraordinary posthumous achievement in her storied career.
Keaton, who passed away earlier this year at 79, fulfilled a lifelong dream with the release of her debut single, "First Christmas." The heartwarming holiday song - a tender, nostalgic reflection of love, memory, and hope - resonated deeply with fans around the world. Following renewed interest in her music after her passing, the track climbed the charts, earning Keaton her first solo Billboard entry and reaching the Top 10 on iTunes.
Though best known for her legendary performances in Annie Hall, Something's Gotta Give, and The Father of the Bride series, Keaton had long expressed her passion for music. "I had a fantasy of being a nightclub singer," she once said. "I sang a couple of gigs, but I was not very good." In 2024, she finally brought that dream to life with "First Christmas," now immortalized as her musical debut.
The posthumous chart entry celebrates Keaton's enduring artistry and spirit - a reminder that her creative reach extended far beyond the screen.
Fans can listen to "First Christmas" now on all major streaming platforms.
